Saints signed CB B.W. Webb.

New Orleans needs help at corner after losing Delvin Breaux (broken leg) for at least six weeks, but Webb is not the answer. The 2013 fourth-rounder has started just two games in his career, both for the Titans last season. Sep 13 - 9:30 AM

The No. 114 overall pick in last year's draft, Webb couldn't make the Cowboys' roster despite depth issues at cornerback. He'll attempt to get his career back on track with Pittsburgh. Fri, Aug 29, 2014 05:16:00 PM

Cowboys waived CB B.W. Webb.

It's an admission of failure from owner/GM Jerry Jones, who made Webb the No. 114 overall pick of last year's draft. The move is in spite of the Cowboys' depth issues at cornerback. Webb was routinely roasted on his 185 defensive snaps as a rookie, and hadn't looked improved in the spring or preseason. His age (24) and draft pedigree should get him another look in relatively short order, however. Thu, Aug 28, 2014 01:43:00 PM

ESPN Dallas has Cowboys second-year CB B.W. Webb on the outside looking in at a 53-man roster spot.

Webb, the 114th pick in last year's draft, played 185 defensive snaps as a rookie, allowing 11-of-13 passes thrown at him to be completed for 131 yards and three touchdowns and a 148.2 passer rating. He then returned to have an underwhelming spring. Sterling Moore and seventh-round rookie CB Terrance Mitchell are ahead of Webb on the depth chart heading into camp. Webb was initially viewed as the heir apparent to slot corner Orlando Scandrick. Wed, Jul 16, 2014 01:56:00 PM

Depth Charts

Mark Ingram (toe, knee, questionable) returned to a limited practice on Friday.

That puts him on track to play Sunday against Tampa Bay. Ingram has had some big weeks recently, but his usage remains somewhat of a guessing game. Last week he was out-snapped by Travaris Cadet. Ingram will be a risky RB2 against a Bucs' defense that has performed much better recently.

Michael Thomas (foot) returned to Saints practice on Friday but is listed as questionable for Week 14 at Tampa Bay.

Thomas was "limited," meaning his only practice participation of the week was a "limited" workout in Friday's session. Still, it would be a surprise if he did not start Sunday at Tampa Bay. Thomas has emerged as the Saints' best wideout as rookie, leading the team in all receiving categories.

RotoGrinders.com Daily Slant: Thomas - in addition to Brandin Cooks - is squarely in play after a disappointing performance in Week 13. He's the safest option on the Saints side and his ceiling is in line with Cooks', not to mention that he'll have a nice draw against the much smaller Alterraun Verner (5'10 to Thomas' 6'3). Thomas has reeled in about 78% of his targets on the year, a great mark for someone who is also integral in the red-zone.

Snead has now been held below 40 yards in three straight games, and four of his past five. It's not true from a targets standpoint, but Snead has become a distant third behind Michael Thomas and Brandin Cooks on the production front. His WR3 case has disappeared.

Saints coach Sean Payton said 2015 first-rounder Andrus Peat could be moved to left guard.

The Saints planned to use Peat on the right side -- either at guard or tackle -- this season, but he has struggled at both positions. "He hasn't played very well over on that right side, so we've got to keep looking and pay close attention to it," Payton said. "I know what he can do well, and we've got to find a way to be at a high enough level inside. And I think we can get that done." The offensive line has struggled mightily in the preseason, and the guard spots are a big reason why. The Saints could look to add a veteran like newly-released OG Geoff Schwartz in the next couple days.
